Player to watch: Juan Mata
If anyone has a chance of making something happen for the visitors, it will likely be former Manchester United superstar Mata. However, even the prolific Spaniard doesn’t stand a chance of disproving our essential Melbourne City vs Western Sydney Wanderers predictions.

Second player to watch: Aydan Hammoud
Hammoud scored only one goal this season for the Wanderers. However, we believe he has a good chance of securing minutes at AAMI Park this week.
